  • Coalition for Equitable Water Flow – Haliburton Sector, TSW Website: E-Mail: [email protected] Questions from the Coalition 1
    Summer 2014 Open Letter to: Candidates in the 2014 Municipal Elections for: Algonquin Highlands; Dysart et al; Havelock-Belmont-Methuen; Highlands East; Minden Hills; North Kawartha; and Trent Lakes. Position on Issues Facing Voters in the Haliburton Sector of the Trent River Watershed The Coalition for Equitable Water Flow (CEWF) was formed in August 2006 to represent the interests of approximately 40,000 Ontario taxpayers who own residential shoreline property on the 41 reservoir and 20 flow-through lakes within the Haliburton sector of the Trent River watershed located in Haliburton County and northern Peterborough County. The property owners in these lake communities contribute approximately 80% of the municipal tax base and expect to see this reflected in local decision-making. The Coalition has identified a number of critical issues relating to watershed management: 1. The March 2008 Report of the federally appointed Panel on the Future of the Trent-Severn Waterway (TSW) “It’s all about the Water” identified the need for a new ‘integrated’ approach to water management at the watershed level and significant new investment in infrastructure. 2. In looking at the Trent watershed, almost 100% of the summertime flow at Lakefield comes from the reservoir lakes. This is the water that feeds the canal portion of the Trent Severn Waterway and provides drinking water to Peterborough and other municipalities. However, almost none of the reservoir system falls within the mandate of a Conservation Authority or any overarching watershed council. Instead, water management is mainly the responsibility of the Trent Severn Waterway. This is cause for concern and an opportunity for action by county and municipal levels of government in the upper watershed.

  • Responses to CEWF Questions from Candidates in Minden Hills Note
    Responses to CEWF Questions from Candidates in Minden Hills Note: Responses below are provided in the sequence received by CEWF Responses from Barb Reid Candidate for Reeve, Minden Hills Questions from the Coalition 1. Do you agree that municipalities have a role to play in working to improve water management in the Haliburton sector of the Trent River watershed? If so what is your personal commitment in this regard? Municipalities are directly affected by the dam operations decisions made by the Trent- Severn Waterway. No longer can we sit back and assume the TSW is taking the appropriate action to prevent or manage flooding. We have worked very hard over the past year to maintain closer relationships with TSW management so that local conditions are reported in a timely manner and dam operation decisions are made with sufficient lead time to avoid flooding. 2. Do you agree that, rather than seeking the establishment of Conservation Authorities in those areas currently lacking a CA, there is merit in municipalities contracting the existing CAs to provide specific expertise and services such as low water response planning or floodplain mapping for reservoir lakes deemed to have significant flood risk? I do not know if spending additional tax dollars on a proxy for a Conservation Authority will bring any additional information to the table that isn't already available. If there is a case to be made for this, I'd be very interested in learning more. 3. Do you support the key recommendation of the AECOM Water Management Study that the TSW adopt a constraint-based water management model capable of considering lake specific navigation and environmental constraints such as those already identified by Coalition member lake associations? If so, what would you do about it? I would like learn what this means and understand what a municipal role might look like.

  • Responses to CEWF Questions from Candidates Elected in Minden Hills
    Responses to CEWF Questions from Candidates Elected in Minden Hills Responses from Jeanne Anthon Candidate for Ward 1, Minden Hills Questions from the Coalition 1. Do you agree that municipalities have a role to play in working to improve water management in the Haliburton sector of the Trent River watershed? If so what is your personal commitment in this regard? JA: Yes, lower-tier municipalities especially are too often subject to the dictates of larger centers along the Trent River watershed and accordingly must be provided a position at discussion tables to ensure their concerns and needs are considered. I have read and support the CEWF mission and objectives plus the 2008 Panel Report on the Future of the Trent-Severn Waterway. I commit to keep these matters before local council. 2. Do you agree that, rather than seeking the establishment of Conservation Authorities in those areas currently lacking a CA, there is merit in municipalities contracting the existing CAs to provide specific expertise and services such as low water response planning or flood plain mapping for reservoir lakes deemed to have significant flood risk? JA: Yes, I worked with Ontario Conservation Authorities several years ago in developing a watershed management tool and envied areas that utilized Authorities. I would suggest that, if an authority is contracted to manage our Haliburton systems, representation from this area sit on the Board of Directors. There will be a cost to municipalities but this would hopefully be offset by the more efficient operations of our watershed-based ecosystems. Two recent floods cost several million dollars and climate changes threaten to repeat these disasters.

I had been feeling like an outsider at the crowded social gathering in an upscale Toronto neighbourhood. Our respective in-laws, two extended families whose connection went back fifty-five years, comprised the guest list at the party. These families had been neighbours for many years at their lakeside cot- tages. Caroline and I chatted at length about what had prompted the get-together. She observed: Canadians and summer. It is as if they have to make the most of it. It is a very precious time. Not a moment of it can be wasted. It is expected that everyone will make plans, and in Ontario that means making plans to go to the cottage. The whole country seems to anxiously await summer’s arrival, expressing endless angst over whether it will deliver the promised days of warmth, sun and fun. Maybe it has something to do with the cold and snow of winter. Caroline was an Australian who had come to Canada when she married her Canadian husband thirty years before.
